e-logic: Online travel enhancements. Qantas & Virgin on the same site!
This month brings a new version of e-logic, with the ability to source both Qantas and Virgin fares through the one entry. No longer will you have to access two sites to check which airline is cheapest. This will save loads of time if you have been doing this OR if you haven't, it will save you loads of dollars because you will now be sure to secure the lowest fare on either airline. The new version brings another enhancements. The ability to book different fare structures per sector. Eg: Restrictive on the outbound and Flexible on the return, which happens to be Travelogic's advice for all business travel.
